MODERATORS
Yeah. If anything, admitting that you’re an avid reader will have people saying “You think you’re better than me because you read?” Or some other dismissive comment regarding people who enjoy books.
So I’ve personally chosen to absolutely agree to that question: people who read are better than people who don’t.
And it doesn’t even need to be boring books. Yes, I will even count comic readers amongst our reading brethren. Anyone who reads with actual intent is alright in my book 😉
Seems a bit shallow to tie that much of your identity to reading books. who cares if you read?
